“Looks like you’ve picked it all up.”
Lee Han finished the frantic purchase.
Lee Han’s purchases didn’t end at grocery stores and clothing stores.
Stationery stores and bookstores (please fill them with cheap, sturdy papers! Do you have any fantasy magic books that could fool the professor?), crop stores (where are the edible seeds and seedlings?), etc.
The staff were amazed.
‘If you really fall on a deserted island, you won’t starve to death!’
“Where is the stable?”
“The stable… you mean?”
Aryan was puzzled.
Like I said before, you can’t drag a vehicle near the school.
But Aryan didn’t ask any more.
Because it was clear what this Wordanaj family master had in mind.
* * * *
The Amur stables were crowded with people coming and going.
Thanks to this, the owner of the stable, Amur, was so busy that he did not open his eyes.
He consulted a group of adventurers who came to buy a new mount, and opened a space specializing in flying mounts on the tower because of the guests who came to leave the lightning eagle…
Running a stable in a town where many of these adventurers roamed was not possible with ordinary knowledge and abilities.
In addition to the ability to handle horses, he had to be able to handle most of the various vehicles seen in the Empire.
When the busy time was barely over, an unusual guest came to visit.
‘Are you a student at the Magic School?’
“hello.”
“Hello. What are you looking for?”
“Are some of you going straight to school from here?”
“!”
Amur was surprised.
In fact, the student was right.
The magic school located on the side of the mountain range was the object of fear, but there were no guests from outside.
There were merchants who signed a contract with the magic school who came to constantly come to supply supplies, and there were adventurers who came to solve the quests the wizards made, and sometimes when someone had an accident, the imperial emperor’s messenger flew like crazy.
However, for those who knew the situation, the main gate of the magic school was notorious.
There was a saying that ‘you will die of old age trying to pass through’, so…
So people in a hurry went underground or flew to the sky. It was relatively easy to pass if the identity was confirmed.
“Right. Why are you asking that?”
“I’ll pay, can you get me out on time?”
“…!”
There was only one reason why Lee Han came here.
‘You have to prepare for the next escape.’
Even the headmaster of the skeleton was admiring the tenacity.
On a nice day out with a pass, instead of wandering around town and eating dessert, the nextYou’re a student seriously preparing for an escape.
And that kind of blazing sincerity was passed on to Amur.
‘Awesome!’
Amur looked at Lee Han with astonished eyes.
The rumors of the magic school were known by Amur.
It’s a place of education that’s harsh enough for students to try to escape.
But how did a young magic school student come out like this and come up with a daring plan?
Among the tribes living in the harshest lands of the Empire, there were not many boys with this kind of chatter.
‘I want to help.’
As much as Amur admired Lee Han’s guts, he wanted to help Lee Han.
But there was a problem.
“It’s… hard.”
“May I ask why?”
“I also went to a magic school with guests a few times, but the school’s identity verification is extremely thorough.”
It was said that it was easy compared to the front door, but it wasn’t easy because it was empty.
The guests who approached the magic school by flying in the sky had to stop at a fixed location.
When the signal was sent, someone from the magic school flew in to verify the identity.
If the person who made an appointment in advance is right, it will be brought in.
“But since you said you’ve been in… can’t you come in with a good reason?”
“Right. Getting in isn’t a problem. But when it comes out is the problem. When they leave school, they check the number of people.”
“…!”
When Amur came in on a flying eagle, he made sure that he was riding alone on the eagle when he went out.
He used all sorts of magic to make sure no one was hiding, so it was almost impossible to deceive.
Hearing the explanation, Lee Han’s expression darkened.
‘shit. Do I have to go this far?’
At this point, the motto of the magic school seemed to have to be changed to “should we do this?”
“But it’s not that there is no way.”
Amur put a thick cigarette in his mouth and lit it on fire.
“How?”
“Get the unowned mount from within. When I come, you can just ride the mount you got inside and fly after me.”
“…?”
Ian didn’t understand.
Doesn’t it get caught if you check it when you go out anyway?
“I’ll check it anyway, but won’t it get caught?”
“It’s a little different. I also found out by chance… People who come in from outside thoroughly check their vehicles even when they go out, but when people who live inside go out, they don’t check it so thoroughly.”
Even the professors went out, so they didn’t thoroughly check the people who were staying inside when they left.
When Amur happened to go out with one of the professors, he checked it over and over again, but the professor didn’t even look at him and let him go.
“Of course, if you go out alone, you are more likely to be caught. But if you leave when I come in, your attention will be on me. Well, this is the way.”
‘shit. Can I get an ownerless vehicle in school?’
In my heart, I wanted to steal a mount that owned it, but…
“I’m saying this because you don’t know, but don’t even think about stealing the mount that owns it.”
“of course. I have no intention of doing that.”
At Lee Han’s answer, Amur smiled satisfactorily and nodded his head.
“exactly. It is barbaric and cruel to forcefully separate from its master.”
“……”
Lee Han thought, ‘As it is a magician’s vehicle, the moment they steal, an alarm will sound and the owner will be contacted’, so he gave up on it, but he did not point it out because the other party seemed satisfied.
‘There are still a lot of things that are unsettling… But that’s the most promising plan right now.’Lee Han didn’t say, ‘How do you get a flying mount in school!’ or ‘They say they don’t check thoroughly, but you can’t get caught by just removing the hood and cloak unfortunately!’
That was the sound of a loser.
‘It will do it. If that’s the only way out!’
“…I wish you all the best!”
“Also! When I first saw your eyes, I thought you were no ordinary student. I will go to school at midnight on Saturday, once every two weeks. Once you’ve got your mounts ready, head to the stables at the top of the school tower. I’ll wait an hour for each visit. If you come prepared, we will go out together.”
Lee Han nodded, then suddenly became curious.
They gave money, but it was too much effort for the owner of this stable to bear.
I don’t know if Lee Han will come out every time or not, but he comes and waits for an hour.
“By the way, please forgive me as this may be an rude question. Why are you helping me like this?”
At Lee Han’s question, Amur scratched his beard and grinned.
“The school is harassing a student like you with ridiculously harsh rules. I hate those rules in my hometown. I couldn’t stay still when I saw students fighting like this.”
“…thank you!”
Ian was impressed.
Outside the school, righteousness and harmony were still alive!
* * * *
The time to go out was running out.
I also had to calculate the return time, so now there is not much time left.
‘I have one more place to stop by.’
Ian hurriedly ran.
It was ＜Illusion Wizard Waldororn’s Workshop>.

Not all wizards were able to get government posts and serve as civil servants.
Some wizards were asked to work together with adventurers to solve them, and some wizards set up workshops in the village and made a living by commissioning them.
The place Lee Han is now visiting was one of those workshops.
“…??”
Waldororn was bewildered at the sight of the student who had come.
He must have been a student at a magic school, no matter how you look at it.
‘Why do students from the Magic School come to visit?’
Waldororn was a sorceress with the highest level of 3rd circle magic. At this level, they were at the level of 2nd or 3rd graders at the Magic School.
There are several archmages inside, but you dare to come to Waldororn’s workshop.
Moreover, looking at the atmosphere of the other party, it seemed that he was not an ordinary aristocrat.
From the accent of speech to the appearance and gait, the great nobility cannot be hidden no matter how bulky they are.
“For what reason… did you come?”
“I’m here to talk about magic.”
“……”
Waldororn was stunned.
‘Did you come here to quarrel?’
At a young age, I thought, ‘To set up a workshop at this level!’
“Tell me.”
Still, once I received a consultation fee, I decided to listen to Waldororn.
“I am about to enter a tower, and there is a spell that prevents intruders. As you are a specialist in fantasy magic, I thought you might know something.”
“……”
Waldororn was stunned.
Isn’t it too obvious what that tower is talking about?
‘It’s a tower in the magic school…!’
Looking back, Lee Han’s clothes were first-year clothes. Waldororn became even more absurd.
So, the current first grader doesn’t even have enough success to get out of school, so you’re here to find a way to break through the alarm magic in the school?
‘…I will become an archmage in the future!’
Waldororn only exclaimed in admiration.
He seems to have smoked cigarettes when he was his age and walked around peacefully…
“The magic to prevent intruders is thatThere are countless varieties. To the extent that no mage knows all magic. A good mage can recognize the structure of such an anti-magic, and a superior mage can reverse it…”
Val d’Orrn muffled his speech.
It was a matter of knowledge and experience, not of talent.
A good vault thief had thousands or tens of thousands of locks in his head.
As such, even if you encounter a lock you see for the first time, you can quickly understand what the structure is like compared to the existing lock designs.
It was similar to breaking through the magic to block intruders.
I had to keep hundreds of prevention magics used in the Empire in my head so that when I met the first magic, I could tell, ‘This is a mix of some spells’ or ‘This is similar to a certain spell’.

No genius could simply dispel the prevention magic without knowledge and experience.
“This… requires seasoned experience and a lot of knowledge. Even if I mention a few suspicious spells, you won’t be able to dispel them unless you master them. It’s better to break a spell than to dispel it…”
Waldororn, who was talking, stopped.
He would inadvertently say nonsense.
Clearing the magic skillfully and quietly was, of course, a more magically difficult task.
But breaking the magic wasn’t easy either.
In a way, it could have been more difficult.
If the magic is hanging within the magic school, the amount of magical power must be considerable, but it must be crushed with such a huge force that the sturdy structure that supports the magic shakes.
Where do you get that kind of power?
“…no. I lied. This is a nonsensical way.”
“no. Please tell me how to break it.”
“?!!”
